1: I have made the decision to move to Florida by January. Going to go to Ybor, by Tampa. It is a good money making spot for my industry, it is warm and a good place to go where I dont know many people and can focus on my tattooing and modeling work... I am deciding this also because I am sick of living in a town where friendship means take advantage of the people you care about, and guilt trip them when they cant help you out anymore... I need to be somewhere that I dont know anyone so I can make friendships with people who understand the meaning of hard work and taking care of yourself... and Toledo isnt that place..

2: I have started talking to a couple guys I really like...

1) is from the U.P. of Michigan I met on a dating site, I really like him, he is allot like me in working hard and being silly at the same time, and he makes an effort to talk to me every day. Even called me first! Sent me an E-card on Sweetest day... However I do not think he would just up and change everything when I am ready to move so I do not know if it will work out. I have NO problems with long distance relationships, but it seems like everyone else who said that ends up having a problem. So I do not know how long that will last.

2) is from Findlay but he is willing to drive (supposedly) to see me. We worked together briefly at the shop I am at now, so being another tattoo artist he understands me. He is my usual perfect level of detached, but also tells me things I am not used to. Things like I am gorgeous and perfect, and he would love to have something with me. But also doesnt get to clingy or push me away by being overly sweet. He has a plus the other guy doesn't, he is tired of being in his area and wants to move ASAP.. We have talked about making my trip together, which would be awesome...

Downfall of both is, they talk good game, however neither has made a physical effort to come see me since they started talking. It has only been a little over a week so I am not counting either out yet. However I am also not gonna be the one to make the sole effort anymore, so either way its up to them to show me who wants me....

This is one of my other developments.... SELF CONFIDENCE!! I think I have finally reached a level of love for myself and no one will take that away. Not even my boss's lady with her self confidence issues... Last week my boss told me to stop posting my modeling photos on my facebook because his lady thinks that it means he wants to (or already is) sleeping with me.. I told him to fuck his self. He allowed me to shoot some photos in the shop and she has been on his case ever since. Which I warned him about. So now he is freaking out that I post my photos on my F.B. timeline cause she keeps giving him hell about it. I told him, block me because it is a way to promote my second career, and she stalked my F.b. Model Mayhem, and Suicide girls accounts to find all of the photos so it is not like it would stop her anyways. (Another reason I am moving)

Finally, we get to the last developments in my life. I got 2 tattoos this week, and started one on my good friend @theatombomb

I got my leg tattooed by my pal and co worker Sean Ross..

The next day after getting mad that I was getting that spot tattooed my boss decided that he wanted to finish my hand... I partially think he was trying to kill me because I had already mentioned how getting tattooed the day before made my immune system crash and I got sick. No artist wants to tattoo someone when they are sick. Tattoos dont heal as well when you are sick because your immune system is already trying to heal the illness, and add the other tattoo to that mix. I really think, it was a ploy to assassinate me for taking a spot up he wanted to tattoo... lol o.O But I agreed to get it so he wouldn't be mad.. And who said no to a FREE tattoo anyways, no matter what the situation... lol... So here is the finished product for the hand piece he started on me. :D

This tattoo has meaning unlike most of mine. It means, "Talk less, words are fragile" A meaning I need to remember most days. lol.. Which is why I need a man who can cut through the crap and just tell me to shut up sometimes... lmfao!

Finally, the masterpiece of the week, I started (finally) a piece on my friend Atoms ribs. A piece I would have tried to put anywhere else had it not been him (dude sits like a fucking beast.) This piece will probably be the crowning achievement of my career so far, and I can not wait to finish it. I'm sure you saw the drawing. If you have seen my blogs and albums... But I will include the drawing first then the tattoo....

And now for the start of the beast...

As an artist you can not ask for a more perfect client. He understands the worth of my art, even though he is a friend. He doesnt haggle me on price, and he sits like a fucking boulder even if it is his ribs. Not to mention his skin takes my color WELL!! <3 the opportunity to put this on such a great client and friend. Ill be able to see it forever!!

Other then that, The Big Bang Theory and The Walking Dead have occupied my free time. I get to curl up with the pooch and watch them. Once my leg heals I will be hitting the work outs hard as fuck so I can look Phenom for the move, and that is about it in my life right now...

Still getting used to the new site, but I think I am cool with it now. I miss the exclusive feeling of the old site, but it is kind of cool to have a social network of like minded folks... <3

Stay true to you, stay loyal to the things you love, and Dont be afraid to wear your ink, even if its all you are wearing <3!!
